Planting & Care

Sunlight: Full sun.

Water: Water Euphorbias during the warmer months about once a week when they are growing and
only once a month during the cool months to maintain healthy roots.

Temprature: Grows best with average room temperatures 60-75°F/16-24°C.

Fertilizer: add some organic fertilizer to the planting hole. Don’t overdo the application of fertilizer, it should only be light.

Care:

Also, avoid placing the plant in an area with direct sunlight before the plant establishes a mature root system.

It is advisable to wear gloves when taking euphorbia cuttings because the latex can cause skin irritation.

In general use a soil-based compost placed over a generous layer of drainage material such as earthenware crocks, pebbles or gravel. Water and feed regularly, especially while plants are bearing flowers and fruit, when a high-potash fertilizer is recommended.
